Hey there peolpe :)

I'm in the proces of sealing a devider in my firebelly toad tank,
and want a quick question answered please :nod:

Basically I sealed the devider 2 days ago, and tested it for leaks today.
Unfortunatly there was one tiny little leak :huh:

So, I patched it up this morning (about 10ish) and have let it dry since.

My question is that it says to wait 48 hours before adding water!
I was wondering if I could use a hairdryer to speed it up?



Thanks in advance,


Maximus
 
You're better off setting an incandescent lamp near the point you fixed and use the radiant heat to bake it for at least 12 hours
 
I found out that it can cure in 36 hours if left in a warm place like a furnace room or by a raidiator. I wouldn't want to rush it though.. :unsure:
